3、tent of wood.1.2 This standard does not purport to address all of thesafety concerns,if any,associated with its use.It is theresponsibility of the user of this standard to establish appro-priate safety and health practices and determine the applica-bility of regulatory limitations prior to use.Speci
4、fic precau-tionary statements are given in 6.1.2.Referenced Documents2.1 ASTM Standards:3D1107 Test Method for Ethanol-Toluene Solubility of Wood3.Principle of Method3.1 When wood is treated with strong acids the carbohy-drates are hydrolyzed,leaving an insoluble residue which isdetermined as lignin
5、.Since some of the wood extractives(oils,resins,fats,waxes,tannins,gums,and starch)would remaininsoluble with the lignin,these are first removed by propersolvents.The 72%sulfuric acid method for lignin contains twoand sometimes three preliminary extractive treatments,namely:(1)with alcohol,to remove
6、 the catechol tannins;(2)with alcohol-benzene solution,to remove the resins,oils,fatsand waxes;and(3)with hot water,to remove the remainingwater-soluble materials.3.2 The alcohol extraction is necessary in analysis of woodshigh in tannin;that is,oak,chestnut,redwood,etc.It has notbeen shown necessar
7、y in the more common pulpwoods,suchas the various species of spruce,pine,fir,hemlock,poplar,birch,beech,and maple.It is recommended that for thesewoods the alcohol extraction be omitted unless it is desirablefor a special purpose.In analysis of woods not listed,thedesirability of the alcohol extract
8、ion depends upon the purposeof the analysis and the report should state whether or notalcohol extraction was used.4.Significance and Use4.1 Wood contains approximately 20 to 30%lignin.Re-moval of the lignin is the primary objective of pulping andbleaching procedures.Determination of the lignin conte
